Ideally situated half way between Powell River and Lund, 15 minutes each way. A beautiful tranquil place for you, your family and friends to escape into the stunning Pacific Northwest!
Although Powell River is on the mainland, it will require a couple of ferry rides (Horseshoe Bay to Langdale and Earl's Cove to Saltery Bay) to get to it because it is not directly linked with the rest of the provincial road network.
By Air: Pacific Coastal Airways & Habour Air
By Car / Ferry: BC Ferries
In the summer months it’s a good idea to make a ferry reservation from Horseshoe Bay to Langdale. Reservations are not available on the 2nd leg, from Earls Cove to Saltery Bay.
Parking is available on the property, in front of the suites.
Habour Air has started flying between downtown Vancouver and Powell River! Powell River dock is located on Powell Lake, adjacent to The Shinglemill Pub and Bistro, approximately 10-minute drive to the city-centre of Powell River. Check-in at the reception of the Shinglemill Pub and Bistro.

If you are looking for a quiet getaway on the water, this is it. Our family took up the whole compound, all 4 units and we had the best time. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. The weather couldn’t have been better. Lots of bald eagles and deer
We had a great time. The property was the best equipped we have stayed in. quality beds and linens, really comfy. Great ocean outlook with a beach side hot tub (that actually worked).
Will recommend this property to all our friends.
We cannot say enough good things about Arbutus Cove Resort. The Hemlock Suite had amazing views of the bay, islands and snow capped mountains on Vancouver Island. There was a rocky beach with a hot tub and sun deck right in front. The space was skillfully designed and well-appointed. We watched humpback whales and seals from the expansive deck. We will definitely stay again!
We three ladies of a certain age wanted a place where we could relax and work on sewing projects.
This house fit the bill perfectly. Very clean, comfortable and with every modern appliance that one could want.
The view was spectacular and it was just warm enough to sit on the deck for happy hour.
We loved it! Thank you, Jennifer.
We have just had a most enjoyable stay at Sean and Jennifer’s beautiful property. Lovely hosts who pay attention to all the details.
Quiet, beautiful, water views from the entire back side of the house and expansive deck. Morning coffee and evening sips of wine-lovely!
Kitchen is well equipped. Beds and linens comfortable and good quality.
We are sure to stay again one day. Thank you for sharing your home with travellers!
A wonderful location, overlooking the ocean. The suite was spacious, artfully furnished and decorated, with a remarkably well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and many thoughtful touches. We loved sitting out on the deck watching for whales, and hearing them late at night out on the water. The salt water hot tub on the beach was a perfect way to relax at the end of the day. The hosts Sean and Jenny were helpful and responsive. We’d definitely recommend a stay at this little gem on the coast.
This is one of the best properties we have stayed at. It is a lovely and efficient home with a very well-equipped kitchen in a gorgeous setting. One wants for nothing there. I think I can safely say that the owners have thought of everything. One does need a car to get around as there is much to do in the area. Powell River has some very good restaurants. Thank you, Sean and Jenny, for a lovely stay! Karen
Our family had an absolutely delightful experience during our stay at this VRBO property. The stunning ocean views from the deck were simply mesmerizing, and we felt incredibly fortunate to have witnessed humpback whales feeding and leaping out of the water on both days of our visit. The property itself, along with the house, was exceptionally well-appointed, ensuring our utmost comfort throughout our stay. The hosts were exceptionally gracious, further enhancing our overall enjoyment, and we are eagerly looking forward to the opportunity to book this VRBO again for future vacations.
Sean and Jenny’s place is incredible and hands down the best property we’ve ever stayed in. Amazing views, really well equipped for cooking, comfortable beds, and direct access to the water. We really appreciated being able to use their paddle boards and kayaks, loved going from the ocean to the hot tub and back, and throughly enjoyed lounging on the Muskoka chairs to soak up the sun and watch the sunsets. Seeing whales (so many whales!), seals, and sea lions from the patio was a definite highlight, but more than anything being in a space that was so thoughtfully designed and outfitted with everything we needed made the week so easy and relaxing.
Great location. Perfectly clean. Quiet and private.
Thanks so much for a wonderful stay. We are already planning our next trip back!
We booked three nights while attending my sister's wedding in Lund - where we grew up. This was the perfect little place for us as we came/went to enjoy wedding events. Highlights: Quiet & private with the lovely ocean breeze. We enjoyed coffee and champagne on the balcony. Those sunrises & sunsets are a dream. Our little pooches enjoyed their morning beach strolls... We also loved arriving to soft music playing & sparkling wine at our doorstep. The owners were available as needed. The property is beautifully furnished & the beds are cozy/comfy. Our six-and-a-half year old daughter was sad to depart - she loved her stay as well. Thank you, S&J.
Great place to stay. Well stocked, great views and friendly hosts.

The host are very friendly and they did a pretty good job of providing everything we needed. Great place to stay, hoping to make it back there someday.
Our most incredible and memorable time together was spent at the Hemlock suite. It exceeded all our expectations and we will for sure be returning next year but definitely for more than one night!! Thank you Jenny and Sean for your genuine care and support for our family having an amazing experience!
